emilo2bad:Did north vote Jonathan in 2011? Google how many northen states, including pdp states voted him. They rather voted their governors in pdp and voted buhari in the presidential election despite Jonathan picking a northerner as running mate then. That described how much they hated South and I dont see tinubu being treated differently in next year's election. Then youd know khaki no be leda. The outcome of 2011 election had shown that you don't need core northern votes to win election in Nigeria. Work hard in the south and Middle belt. Some Liberal northern states too. The rest is inconsequential. Why did you think the north protested in 2011 when buhari lost? They had thought with their massive rigging and overhyped population, they could always decide who wins general elections in Nigeria. Don't make a mistake by calling me ipob as some ignorantly do. I can only advise you think beyond ethnicity and religion in this election so you don't wail for another 4 years. Religous and ethnic bigotry slow down a nation's development. Check out countries where such is happening. They're not moving forward. Same ipob voted Obasanjo in 1999 when we yoruba abandoned him and voted falae. They voted atiku, a northerner in 2019 as well. Reason wisely. Obi is coming. |
emilo2bad:Lol. I'm not surprised at your comment though. Keep them coming pls |
What do you expect? When you're in Rome, you behave like Romans. Nigeria is a lawless country. Why would a foreigner behave well and obey our laws when the government and their men would be seen driving against traffic ? He must face the music |
Thanks for this OP. In my opinion, currently...social media sensitization is key. We're not corrupt politicians who can throw dollars around and those collecting it would think such politicians would not recoup it in multiple folds should they win election. OP, I'd tell you why I feel the social media sensitization is much needed right now. The majority of those in the voting age are youths...educated youths. They spend most of their time on the social media even in offices, workplaces and on their mobile phones. Social media sensitization saves alot of costs. Labour Party is the party of the masses and masses who have a major voice to lend but with very limited resources. The resources need to be used judiciously. When Barack Obama was contesting,I was rounding off my programme in Buffalo, upstate NY. I couid see the role the social media played in electing the first black man in America as president. E shock dem ![]() I remember David Plouffe , the Obama campaign manager. He utilised the power of social media and that's key in this election as well. By the time house to house sensitization would start, Nigerians will see the difference. It will be purely issues-based. We have suffered too long in the hands of these wolves and hyenas in govt and enough of such sufferings. Their national grid is still not up yet, ASUU is still on strike and hundreds of thousands of students are home right now. Banditry keeps increasing . Today, scores were killed in benue. They've failed woefully. I was tackling someone here a few minutes ago who responded to my post for supporting Obi. I had met with this man personally in the past. We had boarded same flight together. This man never had an orderly, no escorts, no private jets and he was seated at the economy side. I'm talking of 5 years ago and he still does so till now. I trust him...and the only igbo leader I can trust as a yoruba man, sadly ![]() I pitied Umahi when he was seen lamenting on channels TV last night over South Eastern delegates who betrayed the region after collecting 25kusd each and voted a candidate from another region. Obi isn't even liked by his contemporaries in that region cos they know he's not reckless. He cannot give them money unless they work for it and that's the type of people we need, a technocrat per excellence. Sadly, buhari is like him too but he's not a technocrat. He has no idea of democratic governance. They just deceived us by putting him there and used the opportunity of his ignorance to pilfer our common resources. The same man who deceived us is now vying for his position. Who doesn't know he will be worse? If you put buiari by his side, someone who's even older and of a frail health, buhari looks much stronger than tinubu. I won't waste my vote again. I'd satisfy my conscience and work hard for Obi. I'd donate when the time comes and sponsor some of his programmes. We never knew lagos was so rich until ambode came. Lagos declared budget surplus for the first time in decades despite executing those massive projects. Though he was kicked off for doing a good job and serving lagosians, his name won't be forgotten in Lagos. Someone ignorantly said to me, how do you think labor party without a stricture or an ordinary LG Chair or governor would win presidential election? I just laughed hysterically. He should go and ask Olusegun Mimiko who won governorship under labor party, defeating the ruling pdp and the then opposition in the state from behind . Prior to that time, no single labour party as LG chairman in ondo state. Once the majority is on your side , you don't have problems on winning an election. Nigerians, there is a huge task ahead. This is the moment we've been waiting for. Join us! |
deeva2:Labour party is the party of the Nigerian Labour Force, the masses, the less privileged and students...and that's the biggest structure ever. The membership is massive. There are millions of employees in private sectors too and these are the people who wouid do justice to our corrupt politicians next year. The Labour force is the structure ok? . You don't have to have a LG chairman or a governor or a godfather in your party to win a general election so long as you have the majority on your side. It's unfortunate our constitution doesn't allow an independent candidature and it's a deliberate attempt by our politicians to shortchange those with great ideas who can trully lead. Olusegun Mimiko won Ondo State governorship under the Labour Party which didn't even have a Councillor, let alone a LG chairman before he came on board. People like you, including the PDP and Tinubu said he was deceiving himself until he won massively. Its pathetic some of you supporting these corrupt politicians and moneybags always think the table can't turn. We are wiser now. Even if kwakwanso didn't step down for obi, he'd get a suitable northerner as running mate. There's still enough time for that, from tonight till June 17th. Next year's election results will shock Nigerians. I'm one of the millions of southwest people whom apc and pdp can't deceive anymore |
The reason isn't far-fetched. Who takes a party that bought the conscience of delegates with dollars seriously? Is Atiku or Tinubu father Xmas? They'd recoup it in multiple folds and we'd be shouting why, for another 4 years at least. You don't see these people until when election approaches. Atiku left for dubai after the 2019 election and turned there to his second home. Do you think they care about us the electorate? I voted apc in 2015 even canvassed people for votes cos Tinubu told many that the messiah was here lol. All i was interested in was a virile, functional country cos of my exposure. I had travelled the length and breadth of the earth and I see the way things are being done in those places. The reverse is the case here. I was in Munich some years back and the driver who picked me at the airport said....we are Bavarians when I said I loved his benz taxi. He said BMW is their preferred automobile in Munich while benz is for another region in Germany. He was so proud to say it. Here in Nigeria, we used to be very proud of our Peugeot brand. During the military era, na Peugeot be their official cars. Companies wouid always prefer Peugeot for their staff too. Where's Peugeot today? Where is Michelin,Where's Oluwa Glass, Where's Nigerite, Where's exide battery? Where's Dunlop, etc? They've all moved to Ghana. Total is leaving Nigeria by end of 2022 finally while shell had since left. They keep saying naira is going down in value but they fail to tell us the truth that same people in government caused it. They're not even ashamed of corruption anymore. They think money is everything? We will show them. The 2023 elections will be decided by the following: The entire Labour Force, the affiliate of Labour Party itself The Nigerian forward-thinking professionals The unemployed youths The students whose future had been tampered with by our leaders. They're at home right now cos of ASUU strike. The parents. Etc Let them keep deceiving themselves. We are wiser now. They've turned us against one another for too long in the name of tribalism. They can't prevail on that anymore. On obi's mandate we stand. Please donate when the time is right. Get your pvc now! |
He should go and sit down. If he has the balls, let him come.hpmw.and be spewing trash. He's too small to spoil obi's chance |
Dem don come again. Same people who said buhari would die before end of his first term and osinbajo would take over. Buiaris is rounding off his 2nd term already. I met someone at the abuja airport when waiting for my flight. He said plainly that buhari wouldn't survive his first term in office cos he'd die. I still remember that evening very well. There are many fake prophets in the land who prevail only on permutations. Make una no spoil Christianity ejoo. God didn't anoint Atiku, he monetized his winning with dollars. |
Pussydigger:So that you can sell your conscience just like him abi? See leaders of tomorrow |
derecho: ![]() |
derecho:Bami so fun won oo. E go shock them. Please don't talk too much cos they could name you ipobb oo. Awon onijekuje eda. Sadly, the majority of them are at home due to ASUU strike lol. If the system was fair to education and masses, would they not be in school by now? |
thesicilian:It's not about the size of the party but the majority who will vote them. I'm willing to donate a min of 500k . I'm just waiting for the platform to be launched. |
Where are they? Where will you get them? Your boss tried it for buhari with their federal might but failed. These people shaa. If apc sees 1% votes in the south east and south south, then its rigged. Maybe they can get some in my region in the south west. Despite ondo and oyo being apc in 2019, they still lost to the pdp. Lagos votes was padded for nearly 2 weeks and by the time the result was released, the margin was so close. That shows apc's popularity in my region is nothing to be reckoned with. E go shock both apc and pdp. All their supporters should keep shouting. OBi is coming |
ProfOkai:Atiku thinks we're still foolish lol. E go shock all of them. Awon ole. Our elders said in the interest of equity and fairness, presidency should be zoned to the south east, they refused. I really pity Mr Onu. He was shouting at the APC's monetized primaries, Where's the justice...! Where's the equity...!? The joy I had was that Obi came out. I had lost hope before then. Now, they're planning a Muslim-muslim ticket. I wonder what they take Nigerians for. E go shock them. Before people call me ipob, I'm yoruba by blood! |
Same with PDP.If only you guys know what Nigerians are planning... |
APCnaPDP:You mean I should vote atiku, the dollarmania? Repent pls |
Moferere:Noted |
LongBig: ![]() Don't let them deceive the broda. I go to North always. If Ganduje could go as far as giving up his senatorial bid in order to discourage members from defecting and they still left to join kwakwanso, then its a serious matter. Which politician would go as far as Ganduje did in the present day Nigeria, just to appease aggrieved party members? They're too selfish to take such a step. That's how strong kwakwanso is. If a southerner won the pdp ticket in 2019, he'd have still gone as far as Atiku did cos the ground was already levelled for him. Those pdp dominated states were loyal to him on a party basis ,not on the basis of personality. Benue and Taraba were a good example of a few states he won in the north, except adamawa where his personality worked for him. Had kano election not rigged in 2019, kwakwanso's candidate would have won. I'm sure you remember the story very well. During the general election, his candidate had defeated the apc, leaving out the areas declared inconclusive. Before the election was conducted in those areas, believed to be kwakwanso candidate's strongholds, the apc went on the mission of damage control, tarring abandoned roads overnight in those areas , giving people money, sinking boreholes, etc just to win their souls. It didn't end there oo, they deployed thugs there to disperse some stubborn kwakwanso loyalists. We saw the injured on the tv, even here on NL. If not for the desperation of the ruling party, pdp would have won kano. That's how much they loved kwakwanso. Anyway, let's wait and see what happens in coming days |
LongBig:Party made atiku strong and not his popularity/personality. The predominantly pdp dominated south east and south south states made him earn so much votes and popularity. Any candidate flying the pdp flag would have enjoyed such number of votes as well and his alliance with Obi did the magic. How many states did atiku win in the north 2019? Let's start our argument from there. |
What do you expect of them? When burnaboy their oga is a confirmed thug. |
LongBig:what's your definition of being strong ? Sentiments apart, let's be logical here...nobody else in the north is as strong as 2 people i know...buhari and kwakwanso.Please do this, go and pull out the presidential primaries results of the apc ahead of 2015 and see where kwakwanso stood. He wasn't the only northerner who ran with buhari in that primaries, remember? The Tinubu's campaign manager has left to work with kwakwanso, shekarau too had left. Not even Ganduje giving up his senatorial ambition could appeal to those who left the apc and these used to be strong members they relied upon to win kano for them. Elrufai's little popularity doesn't go beyond kaduna. He won his first and second term as a result of Buhari's popularity not his. I'm still searching for that popular politician in the north shaa that tinubu would pick. I'd have thought of lawan but he's still a small boy. Someone was even bragging that he would defeat tinubu and come out as the consensus candidate. I'm sure you knew his scores after primaries. Ahead of 2015, buhari induced no delegate with money, neither did kwakwanso as we had recenrly in the pdp and apc. People voted them willingly at primaries. The margin was also close between the 2 of them...how better do you now describe being strong in this case? As a tribesman, I'd have wanted tinubu to win but I know he's not going to get it. Today is a democracy day so, you'd not forget in a hurry the day i said this. Good luck to him. |
jesusjnr2020:OP, do you remember what the bikes says? The judgement will start from the household of God, 1Perer 4:17. The rate at which atheists grow nowadays is alarming and majorly caused by religous leaders. God can't live where material wealth is elevated above Him. A lot of Christians have been misled. Some don't even go to church regularly anymore. Leaders doing what members can't even try or imagine. All these are signs of endtime but many are too blind to see and ignorant to know. That someone people had the gift of prophesy, vision, healing...etc. doesn't mean they're candidates of heaven. Those gifts are given by God, for free. They'd be asked how the utilised it in the last day. |
JooEeL:O lewu gan! Too danjelos |
Naija ti sanle tan . See as dem plenti for far away Australia. No wonder Nigeria isn't working. The majority of our best brains have left and someone is still ignorantly talking of apc and pdp here. Mtcheew. I'm home now, no light . There national grid is still down. The thing is, they don't even give a damn anymore. |
officialwdhtv:impressive ![]() |
bottlewater1:The security search was necessary in view of what's happening today. Afterall, Judas was a deciple of Jesus. Who could ever think he'd betray Him? The devil can use anyone, including pastors |
LongBig:Lol. Hiw many days did kwakwanso form his new party? Go and see the growth. You'd be shocked. Shekarau is author figure and am sure you know he's no longer in the apc. He's kwakwanso pesin. Wetin I sabi sef. Make we just dey watch |
Minjim:I don't like talking much. Let's all be following the trend. Habe a kmce day |
Minjim:Really? You don't know what's been going on recently.
|
Moferere:You're the one smoking weed guy. You don't seem to also be current. Always read and nit just jumping in-here to spey trash. You're not even aware of the recent development in the Nigerian political space . Shiooo!
|
LongBig:The question you should ask yourself is, what's the popularity strength between atiku and kwakwanso in the north, what about integrity? They don't see atiku as a true Nigerian talkless of a respected Northerner. When kwakwanso coughs, the ground shakes. He was instrumental to Buhari's win in the north, not only in kano. Remember he came second during their primaries back then? People even thought he was going to be apc flagbearer. Ganduje wasn't known ahead of 2015. He produced him. If the alliance between obi and kwakwanso should work, that's all. The north doesn't believe in Tinubu cos of his antecedents. They know he's not a man of integrity. Religion apart, with my experience, northerners crave integrity and that was why they supported buhari so much. He had our support too down south. After buhari in popularity in the north,Kwakwanso is next. Down south, only those followers of tinubu are his proteges and their family members, not the majority. APC loss in oyo state despite being the ruling party, edo too, and close margin of lagos election results were a proof. Had lagos election results not padded for nearly 2 weeks in 2019 before release, lagos would have lost to the opposition. Sanwoolu and osinbajo lost to the pdp in their polling units. Tinubu had been spending money to earn popularity all the while but we're wiser now. We never believed our state had so much money until ambode came. He was our eye opener. In the south east, apc can't get 1% vote, south south too, not even now that obi, the man of the people is running. Apc can't get same amount of 2015/2019 votes again in the north now that baba is leaving, south west too, just Mark it. Those who would decide these elections are: The Nigerian workers ( the labour force) The Nigerian youths most of whom are unemployed The Nigerian students who had spent 6 years or more in school instead of 4. The less privileged who heard of 50kusd/25kusd shared at primaries when they had no Hope of one square meal per day. |
Moferere:Wrong. Tinubu may go for Elrufai and he will lose. Obi will pick kwakwanso. Their talk is at an advanced stage For Atiku, wike has refused being his running mate Read newspapers for details. I guess elrufai is Tinubu's motivational speaker, using kaduna as a case study on their Muslim-Muslim ticket. He will be shocked. Does it mean there's no qualified apc christian in the north? Kaduna, where teens were seen collecting 100 naira before thumbprinting on a ballot in viral videos, isn't same as Nigeria as a whole. Someone should tell elrufai this. Tinubu should just make a mistake by picking a Muslim as his running mate. It wouid be an easy win for obi or atiku. Buhari and aregbe saved their party from making same mistake in 2015. |
